Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits beginners and learner-permit riders looking for a light, non-intimidating first motorcycle.
PurposeIt's designed as an affordable, easy-going commuter with a light scrambler-style look rather than a genuine off-road or performance machine.
Rider FitIts low weight and modest seat height make it manageable for riders of smaller stature or limited strength.
CharacterA friendly, unintimidating small-capacity all-rounder with pseudo-adventure styling aimed at urban and light mixed-surface use.
Not Ideal ForIt's not suited to riders wanting real highway speed, long-distance touring comfort, or serious off-road capability.

2015 Derbi Cross City 125 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 825mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with balls of both feet on the 2015 Derbi Cross City 125, with a relaxed knee angle of around 125 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
